To expand on what [@Vilageidiotx] wrote some other further information about RP France:

Through the seventies the nation was presided over by a self-insert President titled "Monsieur Greene". President Greene largely engaged in large-scale infrastructural programs of motherland France and neglected its colonies. So much so as part of its abilities to pay for this they sold Algeria to the Turks or something, who then sold half of it to Spain. France's negligence also lead to the ultimate usurpation of French colonial government in Indochina by Chinese-sponsored revolutionaries in Laos and Vietnam, Cambodia was jockeyed out by convincing the monarchy to denounce Europe.

France was also a member of the very short-lived Central Eurasian League which sought to balance power against the Russians by recruiting the Germans and I think Spain into a international league of nations ran by the Ottoman Turks. This however fell apart when Greene decided to have France invaded for revenge of not getting Alascea-Lorraine back in the Great War. They however failed this mission and withdrew from Germany when their goals were not met.

An indirect effect of this war in the broader Francosphere could be interpreted as the loss of French Guyana to Brazil and many of their other over-seas colonies to some extent. Madagascar is still a French African colony, I'd hazard to say the only European colony not Spanish left in Africa. And they still got their Pacific islands but in the one time I've written anything within them they were merely French in name only and acted on some level of autonomy.

The French are also allied with Spain who is fighting the perceived socialist government of Yaqob, Emperor of Ethiopia or the Pan-African Empire.

Some parts of the above are certainly canon. The second German (or Prussian)-Franco war being one, the short-lived CEL alliance that war ended, and the loss of French Guyana and Indochina. And I [i]think[/i] they're still aligned with Spain.
